Chapter Seventy-Four: Three Plates of Dim Sum
In the past, when others came to accompany the driver, they wanted to have the incense on their bodies, but she was different, the smell on her body was faint, even if the emperor knew that the incense on her body when she came to accompany the driver did not come from her, he did not feel disgusted.
Except for the first time when she accompanied her, Qiu Shanggong gave her a body of incense, and the remaining few times the emperor didn't think she had any deliberate actions, the body fragrance was emitted from the inside out, soft and clear, and she couldn't smell it at all if she didn't smell it carefully.
For a moment, the emperor didn't notice that he had put down the emperor's shelf, and was lying on her back, greedily enjoying the good she brought.
"Your Majesty, itchy." Yao Chuxi whispered. The emperor coughed lightly, his eyes wandered around the room without a trace, and after making sure that no one was paying attention to him, he slowly let go of the person in his arms.
"You just said that you are tired, I will accompany you out for a walk?"
Yao Chuxi was very happy after listening to it, and couldn't stop nodding.
Seeing what the emperor and his master meant, Luo Yu immediately came over with his clothes and cloak, and wrapped Yao Chuxi tightly inside and out.
It was so strict that the emperor didn't hold back his laughter when he saw her like this.
The winter clothes were already heavy, and the rain put on two more layers for the master, and at the end he put on a skullcap, a long gown on the outside, and finally a thick cloak.
"I'm like a snowman right now." Yao Chuxi looked in the mirror and said self-deprecatingly after seeing his appearance.
Looking at Luo Yu's serious expression again, as if wearing one less layer would freeze a piece of meat, Yao Chuxi had no choice but to wear this to see the emperor.
When the emperor pulled her out of Yingxue Pavilion, he always thought in his heart that he seemed to be holding a meat bun, the kind that was white and fat.
Afraid that she would find out what was on his mind, he looked at her slightly sideways and found that she was looking at him.
"Your Majesty, will you get on the sedan chair?" Yao Chuxi asked.
"yes, up." The emperor was just about to get on the sedan chair, one foot had already stepped up, and he paused and came down again, "I said that I wanted to accompany Yao Meiren for a walk, who let the sedan chair run over?" ”
Pan Zhenan came over with a frightened face, "The emperor forgives the sin!" ”
Yao Chuxi was afraid that the emperor would be angry with Pan Zhen'an, so he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, it was the concubines who were worried that you were freezing, so they asked Pan Gonggong to pass on the warm sedan chair, please calm your anger." ”
"You're mistaken." The emperor took her hand and tightened it a little, "I'm really not angry." ”
Yao Chuxi smiled lightly and saw that Pan Zhenan was looking at him with gratitude in his eyes.
The royal roller was withdrawn, and the emperor led Yao Chuxi to walk slowly on the palace road.
The two walked a long way, but no one felt tired or tired, and the emperor was worried that he would be tired of Yao Chuxi, so he deliberately slowed down his pace a lot.
And Yao Chuxi also tried hard to keep up with the emperor.
Pan Zhen'an and Luo Yu followed behind the two, and behind them was a group of palace people standing in a row and following behind.
Such a long dragon is attractive everywhere it goes.
What's more, the leader is the emperor, the only emperor of the thousands of miles of mountains and rivers.
When passing by the door of the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, everyone saw Luo Meiren, she walked out of the door in a panic, turned around and knelt on the ground.
"The concubine greets the emperor!"
"What's the matter with you?" The emperor asked.
Luo Meiren raised her head to look at the emperor, and she saw Yao Meiren looking at her.
She had a burning feeling, as if she couldn't hold her head up in front of Yao Meiren.
"Back to the emperor, the concubine didn't know that you were on the palace road, thinking of walking with the palace maid to eat, please forgive the emperor."
"If you want to go, you can go, where is the forgiveness of sins?" The emperor said in a cold tone.
Luo Meiren raised her head and looked at him again, "The concubine thinks that it is hindering you and Yao Meiren from enjoying the scenery, and I ask the emperor for forgiveness." ”
After hearing this, the emperor glanced at her more, and said mercilessly, "Since you feel that it is in the way of me enjoying the scenery, then I will give you a chance to atone for your sins." ”
Luo Meiren thought that the emperor had something to think of her, and she was excited.
Who would have thought that the emperor would say, let her kneel like this, if she can't kneel and go back to the palace, no one will care, and if you admit your mistakes, you must have an attitude of admitting your mistakes, right?
Seeing that the emperor was leading Yao Meiren away, Luo Meiren's hand clenched her dress, and she couldn't wait to bite a mouthful of silver teeth.
She has never figured it out, she is really not as good as that Yao beauty? What did she do to hook the emperor? The beauty of life? But Luo Meiren never felt that she was any worse, and she was not uglier than her.
The winter wind blew and it was cold, and her hand hurt like a knife.
"Luo Meiren, are you still kneeling? Why don't you go into the temple? Duan Kui said.
Luo Meiren knew in her heart that Duan Kui was left here by the emperor to watch her, although she said that she could enter the palace at any time, but in the final analysis, she still wanted her to come out with an attitude of admitting her mistakes.
However, the emperor wants her to recognize her mistakes and her self-righteous mistakes, the emperor just disgusts her for deliberately competing for favor, and acting in front of the emperor Those pitiful dramas, at worst, it is bullying the king.
As soon as she gritted her teeth, she knelt down, so that the emperor could take a look and feel distressed.
The two continued to walk, Xu is hand was blown by the wind, the emperor let go of Yao Chuxi, turned around and took the hand stove from Luo Yu's hand for Yao Chuxi to hold.
"Don't frostbite your hands."
Yao Chuxi paused after taking the hand stove: "What about you?" ”
"I'm not cold, I'm worried about you." The emperor tidied up her cloak again.
It's really not too cold, as long as it's wrapped in clothes, it's basically sweating, and the only place that feels cold is the face.
The winter wind is hard and blows on the face.
"This is windy, does the emperor want to let Luo Meiren go back to the palace?" Yao Chuxi asked cautiously.
The emperor glanced at her, chuckled at the corner of his mouth and said, "It's okay, she should go back now." ”
really responded to the emperor's words, and it was only half a pillar of incense, Luo Meiren couldn't hold anything anymore, and shouted for her palace maid Yi and Zili, and finally the two palace maids worked together to set her up. After entering the hall, Luo Meiren's snot was dripping, her forehead was red from the cold wind, and she shivered with a charcoal basin covered with a quilt with a stove, and drank three cups of hot water before she stopped.
The emperor would not deceive people, and he was even more reluctant to deceive her, it was he who noticed Duan Kui coming back, and only then did he know that Luo Meiren had returned to Baihua Pavilion.
Yao Chuxi didn't think anything about this trip, but the other people in the back garden were all like a fire at home, and they couldn't wait to jump high.
There was the sound of smashing plates and cups in the Qiuyun Pavilion, in addition to the sound of beating, there was also the sound of Xia Cairen shouting.
Song Cairen, who lives with Xia Cairen, is not angry, she is just used to holding her breath in her stomach, and at this moment she is hiding at the door of her hall, listening carefully to Xia Cairen's scolding in the next room.
Yang Cairen and Zhou Cainu of Huanqing Pavilion ran into the emperor and Yao Meiren when they came out to eat, so they had to obediently ask for peace on the side, but the emperor didn't even look at them, and walked straight over.
If they knew the details of the matter, they would probably thank the emperor.
Because the emperor almost classified them and Luo Meiren into the same category, thinking that they were also here to compete for favor.
If it weren't for the fear that Yao Chuxi would feel uncomfortable, he almost ordered Yang Cairen to kneel with Zhou Baolin.
On the way back to Huanqing Pavilion, the two of them were obviously not very happy, obviously there were still talking and laughing when they went, but they changed when they came back.
Although he didn't say it, he knew it all by heart.
After the emperor and Yao Chuxi returned to Yingxue Pavilion, they practiced calligraphy for a while.
They didn't write ancient poems this time, but wrote her name, Yao Chuxi, which appeared again and again on rice paper, and finally filled five sheets.
The emperor asked Pan Zhenan to put away these pieces of rice paper, which can be regarded as keeping them for Yao Meiren to read after practicing calligraphy.
Look at how ugly her previous words were? Yao Chuxi thought so in his heart anyway.
The dim sum in the tea room was ready, and Luoshuang brought it in, followed by Luoxia with the fruit soup.
The fruit soup is not eaten at this time, and even the Taihe Hall is not eaten every day.
Of course, Yao Chuxi is usually not willing to eat, and he can think about it once in ten days and a half months, that is, to taste it, or the fruit is almost too fresh, so he eats it ruthlessly.
Although she doesn't eat it often, she often sends it to the east and west, what is the Xiao beauty of the Sanssouci Pavilion, the Ju beauty of the Guishuang Pavilion, and the Ning Shou Palace of Concubine De Niangniang of the East Palace, she has sent them all.
It's not that Concubine De can't afford to eat that bowl of fruit soup, but because of her heart, that heart is Yao Chuxi's own reluctant mind, isn't it more important than anything else?
The emperor came this time and brought some fresh fruits, and asked Duan Kui to send them to the tea room to make fruit soup and serve it.
The first thing that was served before the soup was three small plates of dim sum.
One plate is purple taro, soft and glutinous, fragrant and sweet, Yao Chuxi thought it should be made of steamed taro and pestle into taro paste.
The second plate is yam cake, which is not too much yam cake compared to purple taro, and it is enough for two people to eat two pieces per person.
The last plate is a few square shortbreads, the filling inside is made of boiled osmanthus sugar mixed with honey, the dough is crispy and refreshing, the filling is sweet and delicious, Yao Chuxi couldn't be more liked.
just ate a spoonful of fruit soup and a bite of dim sum, and after a while, all three plates of dim sum were in the stomach, and the emperor didn't eat as much as her.
It wasn't until after dinner time that the emperor ordered someone to pass the meal.
The dining room did not dare to delay, for fear that it would be too late to eat and accumulate food, so he hurriedly prepared the dishes and packed them into the food box.
This time, it was Jiang Liu and Duan Kui who came to fetch the meal, and they also came out with Xiao Yongzi and a lantern.
It was a little cold at night, and the cool breeze was swishing as if it was going to blow people through, Jiang Liu rubbed the back of his neck with his hands as he walked, and from time to time he used his mouth to blow hot air into his hands.
After arriving at the dining room, Yuan Shaoyu invited them to sit down, and asked the apprentice to pour water and serve snacks.
In the past, where did Jiang Liu dare to think of such a thing? Can Manager Yuan look down on him?
The difference now is not how powerful he is, but that his master is favored, and Manager Yuan can even look at him with a high look, so he doesn't dare to relax for a moment.
Yuan Shaoyu wrapped a basket of vegetable rolls and buns, the outermost circle was full of vegetable rolls, and the inside were all small and delicate buns, with shrimp filling, crab meat filling, and mushroom and fish paste filling.
